Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesC- FutureA+
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Steelers.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Steelers spent No. 134 on Dorian Strong, a name most had 40 spots down the list.

Landing Cornelius that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in slot 52 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick122 Rnd4 Kalel Mullings
Kalel Mullings in the Round 4 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
Pick134 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong at the 134th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick149 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
They robbed the room for Ajani Cornelius here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick163 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
You do not let a tight end like Oronde Gadsden II reach the 163rd overall pick and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick198 Rnd6 Cam Jackson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cam Jackson in No. 198, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick225 Rnd7 Donovan Smith
Value said wait; Donovan Smith in No. 225 says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick229 Rnd7 Craig Woodson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Craig Woodson in slot 229. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
A straight-up fair deal on Jake Briningstool at pick No. 247, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
